Just saw a 2nd level connection post about the birth of her baby by stating the generic baby’s name and telling everyone to use they them pronouns “for now”.

This world has gone f’ing insane.

It is nice of them to warn away future sane employers.

LinkedIn is a joke. I immediately lose respect for people that take it seriously as some sort of professional tool. That said, why is she posting about having a child on LinkedIn?

I can’t help but laugh when people put their “pronouns” on LinkedIn.

Yeah, well, for some, like me, I might use it as a business tool about 0.005% of the time to va.lidate someone's position within an organization, but it is absolute cringe otherwise how some people post (a) just to 'toot their own horn' "look-at-me" crap, (b) personal info and (c) post/repost articles about their company.

I was asked by my former employer to do that, to create greater reach. I politely declined, and told the VP that suggested it to hire a better marketing firm because that is the responsibility of a corporate marketing department, not sales, not logistics, not administration, not finance. Marketing.

I look forward to the day I fully retire and completely go dark by removing myself from LinkedIn.

LinkedIn is a decent tool to find a job or connect with people in your work market. Beyond that, idk what else you want out of it.

I would consider that an instant dis-qualifier for anything other than mockery.

She can change her pronouns to fired/unemployed.

What do you expect? The Left controls every substantial Institute in Western culture. The Left has confused the sacred and the profane, made Leftist ideology a new civic religion, repudiated all time-honored ideals and standards, and gone functionally insane. They have replaced male ideas of ORDER and RATIONALITY with feminine ideas of CHAOS and EMOTION. It's set The West on a course for utter collapse.
